The fog cleared by mid-morning and the National Weather Service forecast calls for patchy morning fog on Tuesday before clearing for the rest of the week. High temperatures are predicted to be in the 70s at the coast and in the low 80s in the San Lorenzo Valley over the next few days.

Towering over the Redwood Loop Trail at Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, tree No. 7 on the trail guide is aptly named “The Giant.” It towers approximately 270 feet and is around 1,500 years old. The grove where The Giant is located was the first coast redwood grove to be saved from logging. In 1930, Santa Cruz County purchased 120 acres near Felton from the Welch family including the 40-acre Big Tree Grove where the Redwood Loop Trail is located.
